The Honorable Williams Jennings j fc Bryan say? he will accept fhe Demo-! cratic nomination for the presidency. | Why, nobody ever had any idea1 Hp would refuse. I ? S . There is an ordinance against putf f ting trash on Main street, and yet many merchants pay no attention to it and the town cart has to spend several hours each day cleaning up Main street, when only a little care y' on the part of each merchant would * result in the work being done in less than one half the time. Put your .trash in a box so that it will be easy to handle. ^We notice that the merchants are again encroaching on the sidewalks ? of Main street by displaying goods thereon. This should be stopped at once, for if it is not checked now the sidewalks will soon be as crowded with goods as they were a few years ago, and pedestrians will have a hard time to get along, especially during the busy season when there is a crowd in town. There are several automobiles in town now, and we think it well to give the owners a word of warning. Persons who have horses who are afraid of the machines have rights as well the owners of automobiles. The law gives them certain rights, and you had best respect them. You must stop your engine if you meet a horse which gets frightened, and if Vou cause an accident you are liable I for damages. Be careful in running your machine, especially until the horses get accustomed to them. , i f _. -v. m. . ; t IBNI tuber's WAIT!

Our merchants should have more regard for the looks of the town than to sweep the trash from their stores out on the street Put it in a box and the town cart will move it. It will be very little trouble to you, and will be a great improvement. Besides, it is a violation of law to sweep trash out in the street, and you are liable to be arrested and fined. Our merchants have been doing a: fine business recently. Crowds of; people from a distanceiiave been to this city shopping. It pays to advertise, and the recent heavy advertising of our merchants has resulted in bringing a lot of new business to the town. That is the thing to do. Reach out for trade?broaden your territory, and the business of every merchant in town will increase. J. Fraser Lyon, now attorney-general of the State of South Carolina, was elected to his present position tho orroat macs nf vftfprfl V41V V4AV * WW* M of this State believed that he would make good his campaign promise 4'to put stripes on the grafters." It was, and is still believed by a large majority of the citizenship of South Carolina that there was dishonesty in the old dispehsary system, and they believed that Mr. Lyon would, as attorney-general, prosecute the guilty parties. He has been in office one year and has done nothing. Sevjeral newspapers in the State have criticised him for his inaction, and we want to say that Mr. Lyon must make good his campaign promise to "put stripes on the grafters"?at least prosecute them, or stand selfconvicted as a cheap demagogue, whose only purpose and desire was office-holding, and that he did not moon Vio Tf WAS HTllv A 11AVCUA ff itv aw t? w?..j ww trick to fool the voters.

It is hoped that this column will prove a connecting link between the school and home. The personals and observations are written by the pupils, under the direction of the teach ers, of course. This practice is proving very helpful to the pupils, as it teaches them not only neatness in writing and clearness in expression, but also teaches them to live with their eyes open by observing closely what is happening around then*. While we desire to thank Mr. Knight for giving us the opportunity of establishing this column, yet we feel that the1 benefit to be derived therefrom will be mutual, as the school column of any community should contain much that will be of interest to every person in the community. Ehrhardt Graded School, Nov. 18, 1907. The cause of the present financial stringency is that the bankers of the South have placed the money of depositors in New York bank?, and now they can't get it back. In short, New York gamblers are holding the money of the South in order to make farmers sell their cotton. Governor Hoke Smith, of Georgia, has declined to grant pardons to two persons who were sentenced to the , chain gang for selling liquor in dry counties. The board of pardons rec- , ommended that the sentences be 1 commuted.to fines in lieu of imprison- | ment. The governor says the only I way to break up the illegal sale of ! whiskey is to put the guilty parties on the chain gang. One of the con- ; victed parties was a woman. Commenting on Mr. Martin's an- J nouncement of his candidacy for United States Senator, the Bamberg Herald says: "We must not be understood as being the politcal friend of Mr. Martin, however." Of course, you are not. You are "previously engaged," as the girls say when they do not care to dance with an undesirable citizen, so to speak:?News and Courier. - 1 I lit 4" |^S?
